I love getting simple combos that unexpectedly break the game. Isaac's Heart plus Mom's Knife didn't immediately click with me until I hit the boss rush and realized I could just slam myself into every enemy for tons of damage with almost no risk.
The fixes for Isaac's Heart turned it from what I think felt like a joke item into something exceptional (though I may be misremembering?) --- My top 100 games (with write-ups): https://foolfantastic.com/top-100-video-games-project/ ... Copied to Clipboard!

I just did a Lilith greed run where I got the battery that charges when you do damage, the seraphim familiar, meat, and GUILLOTINE. I had no item that Lilith's active item also dupes guillotine so I had like 15 heads floating around my body, and 15 of every familiar.
Greed boss melted in like 20 seconds even with his damage reduction. Then the coin machine broke after 4 coins on a 2% chance and I had 50 left to give :-( --- skull ... Copied to Clipboard!

Maybe it's just because I haven't played in a long time, but it feels like curses show up a lot more. On hard mode at least.
Almost lost a run because I got Curse of the Blind on The Chest, and picked up My Reflection + Tiny Planet, and then later picked up a 9 Lives(In fairness that was from Super Pride and I just forgot what it could drop). Thankfully I had the actual damage to make it work. --- ... Copied to Clipboard!

Having just failed a Greedier run with the Lost, I remember how much I hate damage scaling in this game. Like, there are so many minor design choices in this game I don't understand. Like, cool, they want the boss to still be hard even with an overpowered build. But it feels like it completely negates certain builds entirely, simply shifting more power to fire rate over attack. It's sort of exhausting going through a 20 minute run where I stomp over everything, only to lose 9 lives fighting the final boss because the game decides my mega attack can only do one damage per shot.

I somehow got three psy fly runs last night and they were all successes - it might just be the strongest item in the game? And unlike some of the other super items, I can't think of any potential drawbacks or conflicting synergies. It just straight up negates 90% of the most serious damage sources, especially from the final bosses (though I'm not sure if it will do anything for Greed?).

Had a decent build and enough spare health lying around on a floor with a Sacrifice Room that I decided to warp to Dark Room to try and get the 20 minute clear unlock. Ended up getting into a regular-sized room with two Super Prides. That might actually be the most unfair scenario I have ever run into in this game. I don't think any amount of speed would let you avoid that many super troll bombs.

There are some weird chain unlocks too. Like one of the better new challenges you have to complete one of the victory lap achievements to unlock a pill. Then you have to use the pill five times in one run to unlock an item.

Delirium is still chaos card-able to 1 and done, whereas most other tough bosses have phases. I actually think Ultra Greedier and Mother are tougher fights overall.
And I'm not just saying that because of the many hours grinding to get those lost marks. Down to two marks left for him, Boss rush, and Hush. In afterbirth +, I generally just rerolled the shop a ton if I wanted to fight them but no restock machine... :( --- Lolo ... Copied to Clipboard!

Also I thought I heard Ultra Greedier doesnt have damage scaling anymore so hes not so bad. Havent tried Greed Mode at all myself since the update That was an accident and was 'fixed' in the latest patch - it was weird having Greed mode briefly be fun...okay, who am I kidding? Even that wasn't enough. The first floor is absurdly difficult and could be easily fixed, and it's stupid that they haven't done so already. I swear, 90% of my Greedier runs end before they begin. There's no reason to even try without a strong starting item (depending on the character), which itself requires a key spawning. Like, it'd be as simple as having the first golden door unlocked. Like, I'm usually big on artistic intent over caving to audience demands and all that, but they have to understand it's a problem when the first floor borders on impossible at times and everything else feels reasonable before spiking to an absurd degree at the end. I honestly think the first floor of Greedier mode might be the hardest part of the game (again, depending on the character), and the only reason people don't realize is because we get to immediately retry. --- My top 100 games (with write-ups): https://foolfantastic.com/top-100-video-games-project/ ...

Feels like I'm back in the saddle after having a tough time adjusting to how the major AB+ unlocks changed the game. Even got my second Hush kill with very little effort! Time to get ready for the next spike. >_>
But yeah purely detrimental unlocks seem really mean. Like the pills especially are enough of a crapshoot as it is without adding even more crap into the pool. Speaking of, though, am I understanding correctly that due to rune shards, it's no longer beneficial to hold back on rune unlocks? Or are they weighted in such a way that grabbing just the good ones is still helpful? --- Let the voice of love take you higher, With this gathering power, go beyond even time! ...

WazzupGenius00 05/01/21 6:27:27 PM #92: |
I guess that unlock being a pure negative or not would depend on how their spawning is determined. If it just has a chance to replace a chest that was already going to spawn, that sucks, but if it gets its own spawn roll after a regular chest spawn roll fails then it's a positive.

Do you guys have any kind of threshold where you'll abort a run that's going sufficiently badly? I'm all for pure skilling stuff but I've had multiple runs recently where I get down to the depths with no stat upgrades beyond HP and the game just becomes rough to play at that point.

I rarely hold R unless I've gotten super tilted, which does happen occasionally.
What I usually do is just start playing way more recklessly because if I die "who cares" and if I manage to pull out of the spiral then suck it game. Like I've won runs by going into a curse room, leaving me at 1/2 heart, with no exit strategy. --- If you wake up at a different time, in a different place, could you wake up as a different person? #theresafreakingghostafterus ...

Anyway, progressways; I've managed to unlock each tainted character, and Godhead by completing the Lost's hard mode marks.
